Nokia Lumia 710 release date and price options from Rogers

Rogers customers looking for a new smartphone in the coming months will soon be able to choose the Nokia Lumia 710 if a recent Engadget article turns out to be accurate, apparently it will be arriving in the first week of February – today we have full details in regards to price options thanks to a leaked product launch flyer.

The flyer shows that you will be able to buy the Lumia 710 outright for $254.99, however this drops to $149.99 if you agree a one-year deal, $99.99 if you agree a two-year deal and just $49.99 if you agree a three-year deal.

This affordable smartphone is pretty impressive especially given its price, you can see Nokia’s full product overview here, with a 3.7-inch display, a 5 megapixel camera capable of 720p shooting, Microsoft’s intuitive Windows Phone 7 OS, Bluetooth 2.1 +EDR, WiFi b/g/n, a 1400MHz processor and 512 MB of RAM it will be very tempting!

To give you an idea of just how good this deal is you should head over to Rogers.com, the outright price is $105 lower than BlackBerry Curve 9360 and $200 cheaper than the 8GB iPhone 4, interestingly on-contract the Lumia 710’s $49.99 price tag (as part of a three-year deal) is the same as the BlackBerry Torch 9810 and 8GB iPhone – which would you choose out of these 3?

Recently we have began hearing how Nokia has now shifted over 1 million Lumia 800 smartphones and they plan to build on this with the Lumia 900, we think this is great but it’s also nice to see mid-end offerings which are affordable, therefore it will be interesting to see if the Lumia 710 becomes a popular Rogers offering.
